Abstract
Building on the dynamic capabilities theory, a model of organizational capabilities driving an eco-based competitive advantage and performance in the global hotel industry is tested. Data obtained from 102 hotel chains reveal that organizational learning, shared vision, and cross-functional integration are conducive to creating a green competitive advantage, though this is not the case with relationship building and technology sensing/response. In turn, an eco-based advantage positively affects global financial performance. Certain dimensions of international strategy, namely foreign entry through joint ventures and decision-making decentralization, positively moderate the advantage–performance link, while no moderation effect exists for global market configuration and standardization/adaptation.
